BritNoob Posted July 10, 2004 Share Posted July 10, 2004 This is all very worrying to me. I've just started Goju ryu and I've never heard anything about this before. Is there actual proof that Sanchin causes health problems? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Hammer Posted August 27, 2004 Share Posted August 27, 2004 It depends on your age. After you reach a certain age you shouldn't practice San Chin with a lot of tension, it should be done in a more relaxed way. The Hammer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnnyS Posted September 15, 2004 Share Posted September 15, 2004 Sanchin is only harmful if you train it incorrectly. When people learn things they sometimes focus on the wrong thing and then it gets perpetuated. Sanchin shouldn't be done so veins are popping out on your forehead, or you get hemerroids.
